APC on Wake island

[imported_DaDDeh]

Would people like to see APC's added to Wake, have 2 on the carrier and maybe 2 on the island, I personaly think it's very annoying if your chinese and the usmc have captured the base on the oppersite side of the island to have to try and find transport (which there is not that much) to go all the way around the island to get to the other base.

Or even boats on the island for the chinese to use to get across and APC (2) on the carrier how many times have you been stuck on the carrier not daring to use the BH or boats to get to the island maybe a couple of APC's would help. ?

Of course both sides get to use the boats etc, was a lot better in the original version when you could travel across the water between islands, opens the map up more.

Re: APC on Wake island

No cause then gay little noobs would whore the whole damn carrier with them and ruin the game.

Oman only is enough.

Re: APC on Wake island

well i have thought about it also, but decided it was a bad idea:
1. its hard enough trying to GET ON the island vs tanks in your RIBs but then theres APCs...
2. people will just take the APC to the carrier, charge in and kill all the US there
3. will unbalance the map

Re: APC on Wake island

I always thought it was needed the other way around. Put an apc under the carrier with the boats, give the USMC some protection trying to get to land rather than the paper weight boats.

There is blackhawks, I'm sorry but if you can't get to the island 5/5 times then you suck.

Re: APC on Wake island

Exactly. You darn pubs! Of course its going to be hard to get on the island as USMC. Especially on a public server.

But, its not impossible. Take this scenario. Create a squad. Tell your squadmates NOT to spawn, but to wait on you. Get in jet, or Blackhawk. FLY UP HIGH, to about 400meters. Fly over to island. You most likely WON'T get shot being up that high. Parachute out. Once you're on the ground, inform your buddies and have them spawn on you. 6 of you can cap a flag in like 3 seconds.

See, a lot of you think BF2 is designed for public play on Ranked servers. It is not. It is meant to be played as a team. Sure its gonna be hard lone wolfing on a public server. But if you have your strategy set ahead of time, you'll be successful.

So, that being said, APC's are not needed.

Although, boats for Chinese would be nice. Then again, the Chinese can do exactly same thing I just explained the USMC can do.

Re: APC on Wake island

I think US should have a couple of LAVs for landing purposes.

Re: APC on Wake island

nope.i think its fine. It doesnt take very long to get form one sid e of the island to the other. no more than 3 minutes. plus, you know that the americans are gonna get to you eventually.

All these people say is "oh you just need abit of teamwork to get to the island". Point is why should the USMC require teamwork to get to the island while China does not need it to defend.

If you have ever played a clan game on Wake Island you will know it's near impossible to get on the island. Both teams using high degree of teamwork, China just have it easy. The blackhawk tatic won't work due to the fact it's so god damn easy to shoot down with a TV missile/J-10, the only way people get on the island in a clan game is sending a pilot off in his own squad to bail over a flag then have a full squad spawn on him. Even then it's not easy and the flag doesn't end up staying capped for more than a couple of minutes.

I'd love to hear your uber tatic Sir.MrBubbles for getting to the island 5/5 times when China are using some form of teamwork.

Re: APC on Wake island

Go the long way around, Yes, go around the edge of the map, If you gunners dont start grabbing attention by trying to shoot down tanks, then you'll be fine to get to the North Base, I do it all the time, full squad and they cap the North, then I attempt to goto the Airfield but it usually fails. Anyway, it's the pilots who go through the middle of the island that make it so that you can get on.

If you can get a whole squad to follow your orders, I applaud you. In a pub, it's next to impossible. I've tried inviting, kicking, and inviting some more, and most times it doesn't work out.
